Use the details behind a job title to decide which opportunities are genuinely worth exploring.
Customer and deal profile
SMB, mid-market and enterprise roles require different sales motions and different levels of stakeholder engagement.
Targets and earnings
Ask how targets are set, how the commission plan works and what support exists to achieve quota.
Sales environment
Product maturity, lead generation, territory quality and manager support can matter as much as compensation.

When you create your profile, include details such as:
- Clear evidence of sales performance and context
- Discovery, negotiation and stakeholder management
- Understanding of sales cycles and buyer needs
- Forecasting discipline and collaboration with marketing or customer success
Also tell us your preferred location, working arrangement and the type of opportunity you would consider. Keep your information current as your plans change.
